Cast It Into the Fire: Part II

Ever since our cardiology test finished last fall, there is a phrase I use to refer to times of incredible stress which are quickly followed by periods of immense relief. These are Cast It Into the Fire moments. In my mind I always see Frodo laying down, panting on the rock when its all over.

This year's award goes to: the Children's ICU rotation and its ensuing termination. P. T. L. this month is freaking over. Now if only I could mindlessly stagger over to some deserted alley and collapse in an irresponsible heap for the next month...

I can be your Samwise Gamgee hanging in the shadows, making sure you make it back from Mount Doom safely.
Love you.
